Ron Whitehead Honored at Lake Union Camporee

Thousands of Pathfinders stood at attention Sabbath morning, Sept. 26, as longtime youth leader Ron Whitehead was called to the stage for an unexpected recognition.

Whitehead has served Lake Union youth ministries since 1996. His career has included pastoral and youth leadership across four North American Division unions, service as an NAD associate youth director, and roles at Andrews University as assistant to the president for spiritual life and assistant professor of youth ministry.
